Missing Parts

Hey I was wondering about buying some open box kits from Hobby Lobby. It was the Mits GTO and the Toyota Celica both kits are missing the engine assmbly parts. Both kits are Tamiya but my question is am I able to write or call Tamiya and get replacements or am I just SOL?

Re: Missing Parts

try rainbow ten

www.r-10.com I think, or search in google for rainbow ten, or try www.hlj.com

unless you could get in touch with tamiya usa...

Good Luck!

Definately let us know if they send them. Ask about the engine parts for the Skyline too!

Re: Missing Parts

mabye you should do a little research next time.
Or since you are a master of detailed engine bays you could scratch up a motor.

Re: Missing Parts

take care, sometime replacement part + missing part kit will cost you more than a brand new kit
